[timvp]

nice.

[Robz4000]

Thank ing God.

[MoSpur02]

Glad to hear it. You can delete my thread.

[Dhbsr555]

Link?

[BacktoBasics]

I would have loved 65 but it is what it is. An absolute must sign. So glad it got done.

18.5M a year... No wonder we suck when u have to pay role players that much.

[tbdog]

I still can't get my head around these new contracts.

[Texas_Ranger]

So which one will start. The 18M one or the 16M one?

[Dejounte]

Derrick White is AT WORST a high performing role player. Great to secure a player of his caliber.

18.5M a year... No wonder we suck when u have to pay role players that much.

the ? White may not be an all star be he sure as isn't a role player.

[DeRozan m8]

Imagine having a problem with this.

Murray and his contract is the overpaid one...

This is a steal

[Texas_Ranger]

Next up Patty Mills 3Y 50M.

[timvp]

I was okay going up to about $78 million for White so $73 million is fine

[Texas_Ranger]

the ? White may not be an all star be he sure as isn't a role player.

When he'll play more than 25m a game i'll perhaps see something else.

Tell that to Pop tbh. He's been too busy playing Forbes 35 mins a game.

[Kurgan]

Makes sense to lock him down now before some dumbass team overpays him in the summer.

[Dejounte]

Players who earn roughly the same around as White per year:

Eric Gordon
Joe Harris
Domantas Sabonis
Bojan Bogdanovic
Clint Capela
Bogdan Bogdanovic
Tim Hardaway Jr.
Eric Bledsoe
Dennis Shroder
Caris LeVert
Evan Fournier

[gambit1990]

great news.

[John B]

I never doubted

[Sugus]

Logged on when I heard the news, what a great signing. You didn't lie about it going down to the wire, timvp, I was starting to get worried when the clock hit 8pm and no news had come out.

In other news, Raptors locked up OG Anunoby (sadly my most preferred RFA to try to overpay next season, guess we'll have to settle for Collins) for quite similar money, 4/$72M. Absolute steal for locking up OG long-term. Quite the "lucky" contract, am I right?

[Leetonidas]

Not bad considering what they paid Murray

[Texas_Ranger]

Tell that to Pop tbh. He's been too busy playing Forbes 35 mins a game.

now that he's gone lets hope White gets 30+. If Pop plans to play him 24 then this is a contract.

18.5M a year... No wonder we suck when u have to pay role players that much.

At least we aren't giving $41M a year to Rudy ing Gobert.

Players who earn roughly the same around as White per year:

Eric Gordon
Joe Harris
Domantas Sabonis
Bojan Bogdanovic
Clint Capela
Bogdan Bogdanovic
Tim Hardaway Jr.
Eric Bledsoe
Dennis Shroder
Caris LeVert
Evan Fournier

no OG on this list? Or are these current contracts, recently-signed ones notwithstanding?
